I have had uterine fibroids for a year, and I had a severe anemia in April and May of this year, which has now been treated. Recently, I have had another severe anemia and have a large fibroid in my uterus. Surgery is not possible due to severe anemia. What kind of help I am looking for: I want to know if desogestrel/ethinyl estradiol tablets can be taken together with Gongtuo Xiaonang capsules?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the patient has uterine fibroids, which is primarily a benign tumor. Over the past year, the condition has mainly been benign. Additionally, uterine fibroids can cause menstrual bleeding to increase continuously, leading to recurrent anemia.Recommendation: Surgical treatment is still necessary. Medication can only provide temporary relief, but the condition often recurs. Currently, it is recommended to correct the anemia through surgery for a complete cure. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery.
